'Join the Campaign' manual

Please share your story and inspire other organisations to organise inclusive sessions and encourage people move more and get a healthier and stronger.

We would appreciate your sending us your story in any format which is preferable to you:

• Write a blog. We will publish it on our www.getberkshrieactive.org website
• Make a video message / short home-made video
• Complete our email interview (see below) and send it to us together with your photo (please see the questions below)

Regardless the format , you might get some inspiration from the ideas for your blog/video. It can be a mixture of topics and questions – all is up to you.

Here are some ideas:

• Which challenges were you facing during the lockdown and how PA helped. What are your plans for the next 6 months?
• What new activities have you tried during the lockdown and what was your experience. What are your plans for the next 6 months?
• What have you learned about physical activity during the lockdown and how it changed your lockdown experience?
• In case you helped/supported someone with physical activity during the lockdown, please could you tell your story

It would be helpful if the blog or video reveal the aspects of the different perspectives: what was in the past, what was during the lockdown, what happened afterwards, what are the plans for the future.
